Homebrew grape, an Apple II emulator

lemonmeister · May 1, 2014

Hrm, I've uploaded another build that fixes the problem with the menu, the link is the one of the post above

Excellent, thanks, that's much better, Karateka really runs brilliantly. Unfortunately, Super Bunny seems to have gotten worse on my end; it doesn't seem to be registering most inputs. I can hit S on the virtual keyboard to see the high scores, but I can't seem to move at all in-game.

Apologies for the endless complaining. To soften the blow, I'll add that Choplifter seems to be running great.

Could anyone give an example of what to tag on the ARGV file if the games and emulator are placed in the same directory, please ?

Thx in advance

@Vague Rant if you read this maybe you could help me

.argv goes in the same directory as the game.
The file should contain this:

Code:

/grape.nds gamefile.ext

Thanks for your reply @Robz8 but it doesn't work,
I've placed all my files (.nds, .rom, .dsk and .argv) in the same directory :

/data/emulators/Apple II/

I've found a valid apple.rom that I've renamed BASIC.rom, when I launch grape, the emulator tell me that the bios is valid but when I try to launch an .argv file it doesn't work... I mean the emulator works but not the game, I don't understand...

I've tried to make .argv in different way, first like you told me and after with the path writted in the .argv file but nothing happens execept a black screen with APPLE ][ in green, I can't use the virtual keyboard (it seems to work but when I type something nothing appears), the menu appears by pressing the start button of the ds but that's all...

I've tried my .dsk files (Buck rogers and Karateka) with pomDS to verify if my .dsk files were good, the problem doesn't come from my games.

I'm using the last version of grape posted on this thread (ldxslw.nds from 2014) because the link of the latest version of grape (Grape git r4) from 2015 in the download section seems to be dead if someone can repost it, it could be great.

The latest commit should have fixed all the problems related to input
Also, it's now fast enough to play Karateka with vsync on :3
As always, here's the build

Hi there !

Is there a way to get our hands on that build ?

The link seems down...

APPLE 2 ruled !!!

I think I got my hands on the build, but I can't load a game !

Is there a ''How To'' for this ?

Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks !

@Ironbass could you possibly share that build. I imagine the git repository is holding the latest so I could always build it if necessary.
